"…" She could hardly breathe and her face was blushed.
Jessica's clothes were torn by him little by little.
She could see herself in her dark and hollow eyes. And she was just like a bug which was on the verge of death.
She didn't expect that the purpose for him to ask her to be here was to humiliate her.
Her tears welled in her eyes and she was in despair.
Louis peeked at Jessica's face which was blushed with a touch of purple, then he loosened his hands, and let go.
Jessica gasped for air.
She thought she would be killed by him since she couldn't breathe at all.
She put her arms around her nearly naked body which kept trembling.
"Louis… Carter… I…" She was still gasping for hair and her face was turning pale, "I apologize to you…"
She did it and she couldn't make any excuse.
"Apologize?" He glanced at those men aside, "Fine, let me ask them whether they can forgive you."
She turned around and she was frightened when she saw what those men were doing.
She covered her mouth and she almost threw up.
"No…" She was so frightened and looked at Louis. Her lips were almost bit bleeding, "No, please, don't…"
"No?" He said in a gentle voice.
He slim and long fingers rubbed her sweating back, "Jessica Wilson, even though I know you get close to me just because you want to get something you want, I still keep you by my side, do you know why?"
"Why?" She said in a trembling voice.
His eyes were dark, "Because I want to wait and see when, how and why you will sell me out. But I've never expected that you stole my drawings of the "Shine Project"! I thought she will hate the Wilsons Group since you are just an illegitimate daughter. But I underestimated you…"
What he said were like knives which were cutting her heart.
She cried and said in a husky voice, "I am so sorry…"
If she could have a choice, she would never do it.
"You think everything will just pass when you apologized?" He sneered, "Jessica Wilson, you are too naive."
She was so scared.
She could feel the horror was coming to her.
He peeked at those men aside and said, "I give you two choices. First, entertain them. Second, jump down here."
She was shocked.
She didn't expect that the way he punished her would be so cruel.
Her fingers were trembling and she glanced at those nasty men and had a looked at the window at her back.
Her heart was tightened.
No matter which she chose, it would be the cruelest revenge to her.
She gave a gloomy look at him and she asked, "Louis Carter, is there a third choice?"
Her tears kept pouring down uncontrolledly.
His eyes were darker and told her the cruelest words, "Yes, I will kill all your family!"
Suddenly, she was in despair.
Jessica knew deep down that he could do that since he was such a powerful man in Chicago.
She took a deep breath.
It would never occur to her that she helped her dad but both of them were ruined.
Jessica closed her eyes and she paused for a second.
Then she opened her eyes and stepped back from his arms.
She stood up.
Her slim body was trembling lightly.
Under the light, her skin was shiny white.
She covered her private parts with her hands helplessly.
And she gave a deep look at Louis and said, "Louis Carter, I will be responsible for what I've done. Don't hurt my family."
What she meant was only Jason and her mom.
But he thought it was the Wilsons.
He sneered and gazed at her when she was stepping back.
She smiled bitterly and then she turned around.
She rushed to the window, closed her eyes and jumped down.
There was a sound downstairs.
Those men were in astonishment.
They looked at each other and asked, "Mr. Carter. Your secretary…"
"Jump off the building!"
"Mr. Carter, you seem to go too far…"
"She… she is dead…"
"Quick! It will be a trouble if the media know that…"
Suddenly, they were all nervous.
They couldn't get themselves involved in any scandals since they were the high-ranking officials in Chicago.
They put on their clothes and pants in a hurry.
However, Louis was still as calm and indifferent as usual.
He walked to the window and looked down from it.
